I am a bit sad, however, that I will be missing Thanksgiving. My mom makes the most delicious food ever! I feel as though my absence will be particularly rough on her as I am her sous chef. I am not quite sure who will fill my role. I mean, love you Jim, but lets be real. You are not very gifted when it comes to the kitchen. You are a master of the grill though, so don't lose heart! As for Dad, he too is a master of the grill, but in the kitchen the kitchen he peaks at eggs and pancakes (remember the candy 'cakes, things that happens when mom jets of to the PNW for the weekend).
Fun Factoid: We were talking about Thanksgiving in my Italian class and learning the words for the foods. When we got to cranberries she looked at us and was all confused. After much describing and funny looks we learned that in Italy it is called "mirtillo rosso americano." Direction translation: blueberry red american.
I am off to dinner. Molly's parents are in town and we are all going out to dinner. Should be a good time. They are super nice and her dad and I are political BFFs. Her mom also had quite the zinger today. She made me laugh hysterically.
Enjoy Thanksgiving everyone. Eat lots of turkey, stuff yourselves with stuffing, eat an extra slice of pie for me, and enjoy watching the football game.
Side note: Mom, don't leave the sweet potato casserole in the oven over night, as Molly would say that is "bad news bears!"
Well, I hate to break it to you, but since Moo is without you as her sous, I feel it is only right to step in as a replacement sous. Don't worry, I will even sit in your chair...you know, It will be just as if you are there.... :)
ReplyDeleteJust kidding!!!! We will miss you terribly, especially since we won't be able to skype you :(
Have fun in Ireland and Scotland...please eat lots of potatoes for me!!!!
Happy Thanksgiving!!!
